The stereotype of a card game shows a smoky room with openwork lamps and a green canvas on the table. However, there are not necessarily elegant men dressed in suits with a cigar and a glass of whiskey in their hands. Such things can be seen, e.g. in ‘Casino Royale’ in the old days when gentlemen used to play for money and making debtors pay was taken as a point of honour.
